Ichinomiya Textiles
A city of weaving recognized by the world. Centered around Ichinomiya City in Aichi Prefecture, the "Bishu" region is Japan's largest production area for woolen fabrics. Having flourished through textiles since ancient times, this region shifted its focus from cotton to wool following the Meiji-era Nobi Earthquake. The abundant water provided by the Kiso Three Rivers and a humid climate ideal for thread production supported the industry, and demand exploded following World War I, leading to growth into the largest scale in the country. Today, it is counted as one of the "Three Great Woolen Fabric Production Centers in the World," alongside Huddersfield in the UK and Biella in Italy. With reliable quality that supplies fabrics even to luxury brands in Italy and the UK, this is a city where you can encounter a lifetime piece of clothing.
